did not notice Vanar because of AI narratives. I noticed it because fees changed in a way that usually does not happen by accident.
Around July, execution costs on Vanar were roughly 0.5 USD. Today, they sit closer to 0.1 USD. In my experience, fees only drop like that for two reasons. Either activity disappears, or the system stops doing unnecessary work.
What made this interesting is that execution did not feel less active. It felt more controlled.
Most chains I have used execute first and fix problems later. If fees spike, you wait. If a transaction fails, you retry. Humans adapt. Automation suffers.
Vanar flips that. Execution only happens when settlement conditions are predictable. That removes retries, monitoring, and manual intervention before they even exist.
From my perspective, that is why fees came down. Not because the chain is faster, but because it wastes less effort.
That also changed how I view VANRY. It is not about incentivizing usage. It supports a system designed to run without constant human judgment.
Low fees matter. Stable fees matter more. For automated systems, that difference is everything.
